Ready Steady dō

In our lifetime we are so lucky to meet incredible humans that bring joy and introspection to our lives. This beautiful woman does that and more. Jenine you are epic. A joy to be with and the most amazing person ever. We share 25 years of friendship and I feel so grateful and blessed. Luv ya!

Lucky me, to live so near this beautiful park

Last week, I spent some amazing time with some beautiful people, sharing a beautiful roller bottle of Pure Essential oils with Wild Orange and Bergamot Mint in it. This is a gorgeous smelling blend that often reminds people of a Chocolate Orange or a sweet that used to bring them joy. That isn’t why I created it 😂 but if that’s a part, then I love it. The reason for bringing these two incredible oils together was they both are adaptogenic oils and they can lend themselves wonderfully to creating a feeling of peace or uplifting energy, needed for a busy week or stress filled time. Please do let me know how you all got on with the oils that I shared while creating a session for and . You of course know you can also reach out to me anytime x

Hurrah 🙌
Here it is everyone!

What a blast 💥

Sunday morning Pickleball with friends and new players alike.
Always feels so good to get outside in the fresh air and move my body.

Movement is crucial for good health along with good eating habits and solid wellbeing practices.
I haven’t always been like this, in fact for years I let go of myself and fell into a deep state of self sabotage and diregard.
It wasn’t until I found my aromatherapy and my passion for self care that I stepped up to the plate of health responsibility and said “ Alex, you need to take control “.
I stepped into new education, started working with wellbeing practitioners and started taking care of me.

Getting to a good space is a combination of many factors, its balance.

What do you do in combination?
Does it include alternative practices like Aromatherapy?
Would love to know.

So tell me……

When someone mentions Natural Health and Wellbeing, why does this cause so much fear, confusion and negativity?

Is it because, people think it’s all woohoo?
Possibly that Natural health has a lack of connection to science? That there is a suggestion that Medicine is a no no?

We’ll let me help with some understanding.
Natural Health and Wellbeing is the responsibility we have as humans to take care of our own health on a daily basis. You can choose how you do this, by daily exercise, healthy eating, all the positive and classic ways. You can also choose to incorporate alternative practices that give you emotional peace, physical release and mindful joy.
Behind many of these alternatives lies quite a lot of science 🧪
Take aromatherapy for example, I choose to use Essential Oils that have proven research, Clinical trials and are backed by Published documents. These incredible oils along with my years of learning can support many health issues without having to attend a doctor. However when I see clients and the issues are definitely more serious or medical then I absolutely suggest medical intervention and attention.
The work of a wholistic healer doesn’t discourage science, it is a partnership to seeing success for all.

I do hope this has given some clarity on how I and other practitioners work.

Would love to know where you stand on this.

January is almost over, and to be honest it can feel pretty heavy and emotionally exhausting for many.

We often feel an emptiness following the busy holiday months, and cold gray skies don’t help.
We still have to get up and go to work, and fulfill our roles in all aspects of life. These are Calls to Action that must be be done.

However who amongst you fulfills Calls to Action for your personal, mental and physical wellbeing?

Today I think we all need to work on this.

Grab a piece of paper and write down a few, simple actions that will lift your weary head and bring you some joy.

Perhaps, just take 5 minutes to read and article that you have bypassed because you were too busy.
Step outside and take a brisk 5 minute walk, or even just a simple 1 minute close of your eyes to just sit and breathe.
Give yourself a pat on the back for an achievement 🙌

Let’s raise our heads and fill our souls, do share with us any Calls to Action you have taken just for you ❤️

Wow, what a response!

With so much interest in the series, I will pop on Live on Monday to give you all a bit more information.

Thank you for all of the DMs, I love your interest in Essential Oils, Aryuvedic health and how to take control of your own health.

See you Monday 🌿

Happy New Year!

Do you like New Year? Resolutions etc?

Some find this season rather hard to take, it fills them with overwhelm and anxiety, that the goals they set or the achievements they feel they “must “ make are not attainable, but pressure is on to be better, to do it all, and too look a certain part.

Others find this time of year, exhilarating and full of opportunities, new beginnings.
It’s their time to step up and into a space they have been waiting for. This isn’t easy, but they are driven to succeed.

Which are you? Or maybe neither.

Either way, both offer their challenges, and some suppprt is often needed.
As an Aromatherapist I want to share that, pure Essential oils are full of beautiful natural compounds that can benefit both sides of this.
They can calm nerves, reset emotions, help fight or flight and uplift when needed.
Wherever you land I wish you all the greatest success, happiness and prosperity for 2024🌟

Overwhelm, what is it?

Comes in many guises and often hits at times we least expect.
However it can really rear its head at Christmas, or large celebrations.

Overwhelm has a huge effect on our nervous system and also our digestive system. It causes blockages and can wreak havoc with our mental health.

This oil blend below, has many oils that are great at supporting and carry us through tough times.
Take Wild Orange 🍊 a wonderful adaptogenic oil that works both with uplift and calm, Copaiba that has amazing CB 2 receptor response, Lavender, full of calm active Esters, Neroli, a hero to our amygdala.
So many beautiful oils here.

I share this because, even if you don’t have this oil or a blend like this, utilise what you may have in your home.

Grab an orange from your fruit bowl and breathe in, pop into the garden and smell a plant, even gently rubbing a branch of your Christmas tree, will illicit a calming response.

Take care of your mental and physical health at this time, so that you can enjoy a beautiful, healthy and happy 2024 🌟

Do you love the Christmas Party Season? 🎄

Working alone as a one woman show can be tough, especially at this time of year.

Hearing about all the company Christmas party’s and gatherings, can make one feel a step outside of the “fun”.

Not me! I am 100% ok with this. Everyday as a solo business woman, I make choices on who I spend time with ( or not ) and when.
I say this every year, I love my clients and I love my fellow Solo business owners.
There is shared bravery and determination, there is inspiration and passion and desire and drive. What wonderful words to take with you on a daily journey.

To each their own right?
Whatever party or gathering you are going to, just enjoy it, be in the moment and bring on the fun!
Then relax 🌿

Happy, lucky me ☺️

I had the great fortune of visiting the beautiful city of Salzburg this past weekend.
Oh what a place🌟 a delight to the senses.

One of the reasons I wanted to go, is the Christmas markets 🎄 and the Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 🎶 Apartments.

Music is a very special part of my relaxation. It’s taking time to just hold a space for self. Doing this can bring clarity and peace x
A self care routine, even while away.

Make sure in this busy season, you take care of yourself, it just takes a few minutes to restore x

Peppermint 🌿
What an amazing plant.

So, last week I was chatting with a client having a lovely check in and catch up. Always love follow ups, love my clients ❤️

Anyway, as we were talking she mentioned to me that one night, the neuropathy in her feet was so painful that it woke her up. She looked at her bedside table and the only essential oil that was there, by chance was Peppermint.

In desperation she thought, “ heck, let’s give it a try on my feet”.
Well much to her surprise and amazement, within minutes the pain had settled, then went and she was able to fall asleep again.

Why?
Well Peppermint is full of menthol, methyl Esters, and menthofuran. Research has shown that because of these compounds Peppermint is of great use for nerve damage and sensitivity.

How cool is this?

We were using it as a digestive support oil but it’s versatility is incredible.


Gotta love nature and natural medicine ❤️

Ok, wow, I have had a massive influx of people keen to know about this incredible mix of oils for the coming season. I don’t normally advertise this way as I believe ppl can come to their own conclusions, but with the sheer amount of interest, I felt it important to share x I have created a link for those that want to get the oils but also I am opening my door to messages re these 5 oils and their benefits x Tis the season 💨. https://doterra.me/tnnQeV

Ahhhh that Friday feeling 🌟

Bathing in the glow of todays sunshine on a dog walk Park today, absolutely glorious.

Taking some time to breathe in the winter aromas and feel the winter warmth on my face.

Always good to get outside and walk in the beautiful natural spaces we have in London. Lucky me.

Have a good weekend and do go out and smell the roses 🥀

Truth Bomb right here!

I absolutely love this picture ❤️

If everyone was the same and we didn’t have neurodivergent people around us, then we would probably all walk through life with a little less interest.
We often won’t know who they are or what makes them unique to us, but I feel lucky.

Having a child who is neurodivergent has been a blessing, as he sees so much more than I can in many situations.

He is thoughtful as well as thought provoking, he is open and engaged and really looks philosophically at the every day matters.
I love watching his journey and although some days can be a little tougher than others, it all balances out in the end.

We all have our quirks and so we all need to be more kind and open to each other.

Would love to hear from others on this.

And relax 🌿

Nothing better than catching up with a good friend.
All it can take, to find some peace and respite from the overwhelm, is being with others. Good conversation and a hug x

Been looking forward to this for ages.

Just another way, other than my oils and aromatics, that I take care of myself on an emotional level. 🌿

What a beautiful kit x

SLEEP 💤 💤💤💤💤💤💤

Sleep is in the news again today.
70% of adults in the U.K. are only getting 5 hours sleep a night.

Why is this a problem?

A lack of solid sleep at the recommended 6-8 hours can lead to numerous health issues. These can include stress, anxious feelings, anger, brain fog.l, as well as many other physiological issues also. Such as heightened blood pressure, diabetes, a weekend immune system, weight gain and issues with our cognitive functioning.

What can we do to help ourselves and those we love?

Create a great sleep routine:

1. Try to turn off all media ( phones, tablets, TV ) an hour before you go to bed
2. Try to go to bed at the same time each night.
3. Create a cozy sleep environment for yourself. Hot water bottle, low lighting.
4. Diffuse some Ester based pure Essential oils, such as Roman Chamomile, Lavender, Petitgrain, Wild Orange, Cedarwood, Arborvitae…… the list is endless.

Doing all of this isn’t easy, but once you establish a good routine ( usually takes 3 weeks) you will start to notice small
changes. Every change can make a big difference.

I work with many clients needing sleep 🛌 support. Do reach out 🌿

Are you struggling making sense of the world at the moment?

I am!

There is a lot of overwhelm happening right now. My private clients are telling me this on a daily basis. So many questions, but mainly ……………why?

It is my job as a specialist to help with the “what do you need” , how can I support you?

Aromatherapy is a powerful tool, capable of supporting, and nurturing ones emotions, to help you through worries and struggle, as well as some of the physiological effects that these have on the body.

If you already use Aromatherapy as a supportive treatment, do share how it has helped.
If you use alternatives, I’d love to hear what they are.
Sharing effective tools to support each other is really important right now.

Look what I made!!!!! I absolutely love it. One of my besties .essential.drop.of.joy did this with me in CANADA and I am obsessed. It’s a USB camping light. We went to a Turkish lamp making morning in NewWestminster and I created this. Just needed to show it off as I am loving sitting outside in the fresh autumn air and lightning the way. Of course I still have my diffuser out there too with beautiful autumnal smells but what a bonus to have this light. 🍁

Actually, I am in a really good place emotionally and spiritually but man, I do love just sitting on the couch with my boy Eric, on a cold rainy day and just snuggling 🐾. My diffuser is outputting Serenity and Harvest Spice, creating a cosy and calm atmosphere and Eric & I are in heaven. ☔️
